kbuild: disable depmod in cross-compile kernel build
When building embedded systems in a cross-compile environment and populating a target's file system image, we don't want to run the depmod on the host as we may be building for a completely different architecture. Since there's no such thing as a cross-depmod, we just disable running depmod in the cross-compile case and we just run depmod on the target at bootup. Inspired by patches from Christian, Armin and Deepak.
